TheCaptain visited on 24th Sep 2005 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 3 Access: 5 This stone is easy to find, driving west along the D.112 towards Sanilhac, and after a couple of kilometres there it is, standing right beside the road at a corner. It stands at over 2 metres tall, but has been cemented back together from several pieces, the top having been broken off in the past.
